Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 148 Collecting Evidence

Melinda fell asleep while she was crying, frowning in her dream. She tried to run away from the cage.

But it was too dark and endless to run.

"Phew!" Melinda opened her eyes, gasping for breath. Her hand rested on the position of her heart. The dream was so real that it made her scared.

"Ah!"

Melinda raised her hand and felt sore all over her body. It was hard for her to open her eyes. With the coldness in her hands, her eyes were much relaxed when she rested her hand on her eyes at this moment.

Melinda narrowed her eyes and found that it was already ten o'clock. She walked to the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. She sighed helplessly, it seemed that she could not meet anyone today.

Melinda tried every means to eliminate her swelling and stayed in the bedroom all day long. Nelson, Queena and Yulia all had come to see her.

She had returned to her usual calm. It seemed that what happened last night had no influence on her at all. But any wise person could see that Melinda began to have a strong aversion to Jonas.

As long as the name "Jonas" was mentioned, her smile would instantly fade away, and her attitude would also become perfunctory.

"Don't worry. I have warned him not to enter your room. You want quietness, and I will give you the quietness. But, Melinda, as for the divorce, we should wait until you completely calm down."

What Nelson said made sense. Melinda neither agreed nor denied it. But she had already made a decision in her heart about what to do.

She must get a divorce, but it was impossible for her to find a breakthrough in this divorce due to Jonas's absence. Thinking it over, Melinda decided to collect the evidence of Jonas's extramarital affair.

Considering the relationship between Jonas and Emily, Melinda thought it was a reliable thing.

'Isn't that enough evidence to prove their intimate relationship?' Melinda mocked in her heart.

However, Melinda was aware that it was not an easy thing for her to collect evidence according to her current abilities.

With one hand supporting her chin, Melinda typed on the keyboard with the other. The screen was in a mess.

It was a dilemma for her to write a novel at this time. Melinda loosened her hand and sighed. She turned her eyes to the right corner of the computer and noticed that the information frame was blinking.

It was a message from Leo. They hadn't contacted each other for a long time. It seemed that since Melinda had been together with Jonas, her circle of life was getting smaller and smaller.

"Melinda, are you in a bad mood?"

Leo knew that his identity was a little embarrassing. He had only greeted Melinda in a simple way and rarely came to her.

But he still concerned for her. He still knew a lot about the current situation of Melinda from Kent.

He asked this question today just because he saw Melinda's wechat moments. She had written a short piece of paper today, which seemed to be positive, but Leo read the sadness in it and had an imperceptible helplessness.

Yes, Melinda was at a loss. She did not know what to do. She had a goal, but she did not know how to achieve it.

"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern." Her estranged tone assured Leo's guess.

He didn't really know how to comfort people.

"Melinda, are you free tomorrow? Would you like to have a cup of coffee?" Leo thought for a long time before he typed the last sentence. Then he fixed his eyes on the screen of the computer, waiting for the answer of Melinda.

It was shown that the other side was inputting but sometimes not. It could be seen that Melinda was also thinking.

Melinda didn't like to bother others with everything. But she began to consider whether it would be better if she asked for help.

She was hesitating, and fragments of her sadness flashed through her mind. At that moment, Melinda made her decision.

"Okay. I'll go to the Starbucks on the Central Plaza tomorrow afternoon. It's about 3 o'clock."

The Liu family of Leo had a place in A City for a long time. Melinda planned to use his help to get rid of the Gu family. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

The moment he got her message, Leo realized that something had changed, but he didn't know what exactly happened. After all, he had much free time and he agreed immediately.

The other day was still calm. Melinda didn't know if Jonas had gone back to the Gu's mansion. She had been unwilling to go out of the bedroom all the time, so on the next day, when the family saw her get dressed and ready to go out, they were surprised.

At this moment, everyone's nerves were on edge, even the slightest sound of wind blowing and trembling would make them nervous. Melinda went out. Queena and Nelson couldn't help but ask. They were afraid that Melinda would leave directly and never come back.

"I'm just going to meet a friend. I'll probably come back after dinner. Don't worry, Grandpa."

Melinda came back after dinner to comfort Nelson, who was worried about her leaving.

She would have left, but not at the moment. 'It's not the right time to do it now, ' Melinda thought. After she says that, Nelson can only repeatedly remind her to come back early.

Leo arrived at the Starbucks at 3:00 am when he got off work. Being held up by her family, Melinda was late for nearly half an hour.

"Something happened. Have you waited long?"

Melinda looked around and saw that Leo was waving to her not far away. She walked over and put down her backpack. She was still breathing heavily.

She didn't like to keep others waiting, so she trotted over after parking the car.

"It's my pleasure to wait for a lady."

Leo's each and every move was dignified and elegant, which indicated that he was born in a noble family.

After a small talk between the two, Melinda cut to the chase, "I asked you out because I need your help."

"As long as I can help, I will not refuse,"

Leo said, surprised. From his point of view, Melinda was a tough woman. He figured it out that it must be a very difficult thing after seeing her frown.

If it was a personal affair, Leo would help, no matter what happened, but if it was related to his family, he had to think about it.

He was a strict person most of the time.

"Let me tell you something about me recently... I decided to divorce with Jonas but he refused. I want to collect the evidence of his infidelity." Melinda told Leo about her own experience calmly, as if she was telling other people's story.

But she sounded determined when she mentioned divorce.

She took a sip of the coffee. It was ordered by Leo. There was a very slight smell of caramel macchiato spreading on the tip of her tongue. She held the cup in both hands and looked at Leo sitting opposite her.

It didn't occur to Leo that there were so many twists and turns in the matter, but he soon understood what was behind the scenes.

But what surprised him was that Jonas looked so decent, but he was such a scum. He didn't have a prejudice against the entertainment circle, but Emily. He thought that Emily was not a good person.

"Are you worried that you can't collect any evidence?"

"To be honest, I don't have much confidence." Melinda was very clear about her own situation. What worried her most was that if Jonas knew that she had collected these evidences and stopped her, things would be more complicated.

"I'll do you a favor." Leo smiled at Melinda. Though he was still young, his calmness was comforting. Melinda could not help smiling.

With Leo's help, she felt much more relaxed. Her hands, which had been holding the glass, loosened a little. "Thank you," she said.

"Melinda, if you need any help in the future, you can call me at the first time."

Melinda was being polite to Leo, and this was the way she dealt with people. He did not pay much attention to it, but he said that because he was afraid that similar things would happen.

He really hoped that he could help Melinda when something happened to her. He didn't think she could bear that much considering her thin body.

"What?" Melinda rose her voice at the end, with a touch of doubt in her voice. However, Leo was still smiling without saying a word.

However, his smile was so attractive that a waitress who was cleaning up knocked into Melinda by accident.

"Oh, I'm sorry, lady. Are you all right?" The waitress suddenly woke up. Melinda's dress was stained with coffee.

"Nothing." Melinda waved her hands as she took the tissue from Leo and bent down to clean it.

Leo had been looking at Melinda, but she lowered her head at this moment, so he could saw the situation behind her. Leo found that someone was looking at their position from time to time, he immediately became skeptical.

People like Leo were always sensitive because of their living environment. The man gave Leo a special feeling of being peeped when he looked at that man.

Was the man monitoring him? It was only a short time for Leo to make such a guess, but he denied it in an instant. Then he looked at Melinda who had already stood up.

His intuition told him that the man was most likely coming for Melinda.

The waitress stood still, at a loss. Melinda comforted her and the waitress expressed her gratitude continuously. When she passed by Leo, the waitress reminded in a low voice, "There's a man behind who has been staring at your girlfriend."

"Thank you," said Leo in a low voice, astonished.

"What's wrong?"

Melinda didn't know what was going on and Leo didn't want to tell her to bother her. He just distracted some of his attention behind Melinda.

"Look at the crumbs on your lips." Leo's eyes seemed to be full of tenderness. He reached out and carefully wiped the corner of Melinda's mouth, but used tissue.

He glanced at the person behind Melinda. As expected, the man took a selfie with his mobile phone. How funny it was that a man was taking a selfie.

Leo guessed that Melinda must be under surveillance of this man, and he surmised that she might not know the truth.

Judging from the situation that Melinda was in, it was difficult for him to decipher who the person was to send this man. However, he knew that the person would definitely take next step after taking the photos.

However, his movement made Melinda feel very embarrassed. She quickly took the tissue and stressed, "I can do it myself."
